Just saw 24 pack of three piece balls for $27. Roast me if you want but I don’t pay 40-50.00 for a dozen balls. I’m not good enough to justify it. Just curious

I would imagine if you shoot 90+ they are probably fine

A scratch at our club hit them with a monitor.

Good performance. He uses them.

Yes.

We discussed it.

He’s a really good player.

He always used ProV in the past, but he showed up with these.

I guess the Maxfli line has had tour wins this year so IF a ball performs for you, use it.

I don’t have a monitor.

Most players aren't.

I'm always amazed to see hackers who can't strike the ball consistently and struggle to break 100 insist they can't play with anything other than a ProV1.

I love those guys with the ProV1! I pick them up in the woods when I’m looking for my ball

I found two on the course last week that looked like they were never hit so I put them in play. They were just fine. Plenty of spin off the wedges and not too much off the driver. They are not as hard as the silver stripe Kirkland but had a similar flight just straighter.

FWIW I’ve never bought a ProV1 but I do play them regularly thanks to some kindly donations.

Evidently the new version of the Kirklands ball, the ones in the box with the red stripe, are as close to the their original proV1 knock off as possible. As a player who averages mid 80 to high 80s I lose too many balls to every pay for expensive balls
